Option 1

 * Article title:Los Alamitos Creek
 * Article Evaluation:The article is well structured, offering a brief synopsis of primary information about the creek in the beginning. The article runs through the history, geography, and wildlife relevant to the creek. However, the information provided about the history of the creek is somewhat vague: it references that Native American tribes lived there but doesn't identify which tribes. Additionally, there is only a written description of the course that the creek takes rather than a visual. I've found maps of the creek provided by the local government that I could add to the article.

Option 2

 * Article title:Almaden Quicksilver County Park
 * Article Evaluation:The article is segmented into sections such as history and geography that allow the audience to sort through and read what they'd specifically like to know about the park. However, the historical information about the park is relatively vague and there is virtually no information about the natural life in the park.

Option 3

 * Article title:San Francisco Bay Salt Ponds
 * Article Evaluation:The article is organized into a synopsis at the beginning, geography & fauna, history, and the restoration of the flats. It delves into why the salt ponds are multicolored but there is essentially no information on any vegetation that lives in the area or wildlife that resides in the salt ponds.
